The AllMusic review by Steve Huey states, "Even with all the straightforward pop overtones of much of the material, the quartet's playing is still very subtly advanced, both in its rhythmic interaction and the soloists' harmonic choices. Whether augmented by an extra voice or sticking to the basic trio format, the Green/Young/Jones team produced some of the most sophisticated organ/guitar combo music ever waxed, and I Want to Hold Your Hand is the loveliest of the bunch".[3]

gollark: Would they? I mean, in rust you invoke borrow checker wrath, in C you invoke malloc wrath, in lots of other ones it would be magically GCed I guess.
